Scowling Forecasts

Shooting evil looks at someone to preempt them from intruding on your space, taking the seat next to you on mass transit, or starting a conversation with you.
There was only one seat left on the bus, but the old lady next to it was scowling forecasts at me so I stood the whole way.

Shoblin Goblin

Shoblin Goblins are mythical creatures that prey on the cereal supply in people's houses. It is well known that their favorite meal is corn flakes. Although typically nocturnal, Shoblin Goblins have been known to occasionally camp outside Walmart Supercenters waiting for people to exit with corn flakes in their shopping carts. Their primary form of attack is breaking into homes and rolling up to the foot of a person's bed, before screaming "Gimmie all your corn flakes bitch" and flailing around. If a person makes eye contact with a Shoblin Goblin at night, they enter a form of sleep paralysis and proceed to shit and piss themselves at the same time. To make the situation worse, they have to powerlessly watch as the Shoblin Goblin tears apart their pantries in search of corn flakes. Shoblin Goblins are short in stature, and relatively passive unless corn flakes are involved. Their voices are said to sound like Golem from lord of the rings but more congested. In the event that you are faced with a Shoblin Goblin, it is important to remember to call your resident Shleeble warrior to come kill it.
Did you hear what happened to Demetrius the other day?! He got jumped by a Shoblin Goblin and might not ever eat a box of cornflakes again!

Sholing

A very nice little part of Southampton with a village green, a Tescos and a few other shops. It spreads out quite a bit so it's not always clear where Sholing starts and ends. Sholing is near to Weston, Woolston, Thornhill, Bitterne and Bursledon.

Which part of Sholing?
